SUMMARY
- Swinging your arms means you are mostly a relaxed person. You are joyful, and sometimes people even don’t take you seriously, though you are still a brave, self-confident person.
On the contrary, if your arms are inactive, you don’t easily trust people. You’re a bit reserved and not overemotional.
- Your habit of getting up to eat something at night also can tell a lot about your personality.
Such people are seemingly in a long termed stressful situation. Notably, the more often you get up at night, the deeper the stress is. You can even not pay attention to such “night fridge excursions,” thinking it is because of some insomnia or loud noises that wake you up. In their turn, psychologists say that the reason is the slight indifference towards your health and life necessities.
- Those people who do not make up their beds, don’t notice trifle things in other aspects of life! They are not so good at planning their actions and can be disorderly; sometimes even dissipated.
- If you are in the habit of leaving dirty dishes till you wake up in the morning, please, accept our congratulations! You don’t like troubles!
You don’t like to treat things as they come in. To be exact, when you have small misfortunes, you always like to think the will solve themselves at some time.
- If you prefer a backpack, you’re probably always ready for adventure and prepared to go at any moment.
If you firmly hold your belongings in your hands, complete and utter control over everything is your motto.
People who wear a bag on their shoulder love reading: this position allows them to fish out their favorite book even when there’s virtually no space for it.
If you carry your bag over your shoulder, no criminal will be able to steal your precious cargo.
What was that rushing past you just now? A tornado? Nope, that’s a person who carries their bag on their stomach — that’s the only way it’s not blown away by the wind made thanks to their speed.

Japanese people are known for their intelligence, politeness, and wellness. Why is this nation so unique and different from the rest of the world? It seems we’ve found the answer – they have an incredibly cool education system and unique teaching methods! Watch till the end – there is a small but brilliant bonus for you.

Let’s start with a unique Japanese method in the schools for developing creativity in kids. We believe that the whole world needs to adopt! It’s called “Nameless paints.” Japanese designers named Yusuke Imai and Ayami Moteki created an unusual set to teach kids colors and painting. This fantastic set won the 2012 Kokuyo Design Award.

Let’s see how it works. “Nameless paints” includes ten tubes that don’t have color names such as “yellow,” “blue,” or “green.” Instead, there are only spots of a particular color or colors on each tube. As you can see, the spots are also different sizes.
The designers’ aim is to change the way kids think and learn. They want children to understand what shade they will get if they mix certain colors.
For instance, a child looks at the tube with two spots: pink and blue. He doesn’t know what color hides inside. He squeezes the tube and gets… purple color! So, as a result, the kid learns that the same amounts of pink and blue paints create purple.
Here’s another example – a tube with a big blue spot and small pink one. It means if you mix a small amount of the pink color and a large amount of the blue color, you’ll get dark-blue color. Interesting, right?
As you can see, each tube hides a particular color inside. Pink, yellow, blue, purple, red, dark green, dark blue, orange, light-green, and black. However, to get one of these shades, the child should think about which colors create it.
As a result, they learn how to create new colors and how to mix them. It’s an easy and fun way to understand the color theory.
Recent studies have shown that free thinking is an attribute that a person can acquire over time, and the schools play the most important part in developing creativity.

Now, here’s the bonus – 10 brilliant features of the Japanese education system the whole world needs to adopt. The success of the Japanese culture is very simple: they put a lot of effort and time in the education system trying to make it not only useful but also fun.
